PNE face Watford away from home on Saturday, 6 April
Preston North End supporters heading to Watford on Gentry Day next month could be affected by train strikes. Drivers will strike next month as the long-running dispute over pay and conditions, continues. In total, 16 rail companies will see ASLEF members take part in rolling one-day walk outs between Friday, 5 April and Monday, 8 April. PNE fans who were travelling down to Hertfordshire, or London, the day before the match, will have had plans scuppered.
The railway news comes two-and-a-half weeks ahead of Preston's away fixture. The union are looking to 'increase the pressure' on train companies for a pay rise, with train companies having outlined the intention to minimise disruption. Avanti West Coast strikes will take place on Friday, 5 April along with East Midlands Railway, West Midlands Trains and CrossCountry. On the Saturday, Chiltern, GWR, LNER, Northern, and TransPennine will strike.
